History is one of the disciplines at the core of the liberal arts tradition. History not only seeks to preserve, extend, and reevaluate our study of the past, but also to connect it with the present. In this way, History is as much about the past as it is the present as it deals with concepts, rather than rote memorization.
While content knowledge is important to the study of History, the History major also emphasizes a variety of skills that are central and applicable to nearly any career path. These skills include problem-solving and critical thinking, analysis and interpretation through research, cultural literacy, and effective, concise, and clear written and oral communication.
According to conventional thinking, students majoring in HIST are generally directed at one of the following career paths: teaching, law, or government service. However, the range of career paths that HIST major have pursued, and continue to pursue is far more expansive. History majors can be found in fields as varied as media, journalism, politics, business, librarianships, foundation work, technology, literature, entertainment.

The History major prepares its students with the confidence, skills, and knowledge to connect what they’ve learned to their objectives.
